Permission? Aren't wives supposed to take orders? As you can tell, I'm not married. If caught, deny everything!

Take it to work and put the parts on during your lunch break. None the wiser. |

Guess I'm lucky, my wife enjoys when I go to the den and work on my RC's, she then controls the TV and can watch all her trash shows with out me complaining about trash TV. The only time she gets grumpy about it is when I test out vertical abilities on the couch, or fly my heli inside |

You might think she doesn't know, but she does! She's just saving it for when she needs to be one up on ya. If she complains about the money you spend on your crawler, ask her if she'd prefer you spend it on whiskey and piss it aginst the wall. Go ahead and build ya damn truck, hang out with ya mates, and spend your spare time doing something more constructive than watching TV or playing video games. Get outa the house on weekends and live a little, you only get one chance at that! Cheers. |

and this is why you should always take the parts out of their original packaging and stick them in a paper bag. if she asks, they're just some old spare parts you had lying around |

I have been lucky enough to remain unmarried, so I don't have to deal with this. My gf just laughs at me and goes about her business.

| I have the same issues, except I always fear the ups boxes on the front stoop when we come home from work! Now, what will I tell her when my new chassis comes in... |
